@Heinrich: "The wife of Abu Hamza, the jailed Muslim cleric, has complained about her 
husband's treatment in a high-security London prison.
Hamza, 49, dubbed the "preacher of hate", is serving seven years for 
inciting the murder of non-Muslims.
In a letter to a London-based Islamic organisation, Nagat Mostafa, 46, said 
her husband claimed to be the victim of racist bullying and Islamophobia in 
Belmarsh jail.
Her letter to al-Maqreze Centre for Historical Studies was sent shortly 
after Hamza - who is fitted with hooks on both hands - underwent surgery in 
May to remove an inch of bone from his left arm stump, which had become 
infected.
She wrote: "I would like to bring to your attention the current plight of my 
husband.
"The reason that his arm needed further amputation was because of the 
removal of his prostheses, resulting in him constantly putting pressure on 
the remainder of his fore limbs. As there is no soft furnishing in his cell, 
he has been suffering considerable pain. After surgery, before he had even 
recovered from the anaesthetic, he was returned to Belmarsh, only to be told 
he had to move from his cell to another one. He was so weak and unable to 
stand that he refused, resulting in him being put in solitary confinement.
"My husband says the racist bullying and Islamophobia against him have 
intensified."
The contents of the letter were disclosed by the Maqreze Centre, which 
called the cleric's treatment "unjust" and said it feared he could die 
behind bars.
Ms Mostafa married Hamza in an Islamic ceremony in 1985, a year after he 
divorced his first wife. The couple have seven children. Hamza, who preached 
at Finsbury Park mosque, north London, was jailed in 2006 after being 
convicted of 11 charges of inciting murder and race hate.
An estimated one in six of Belmarsh's 920 prisoners is Muslim. Prison 
officers gave warning last week of the threat of extremists "radicalising" 
inmates.
Steve Gough, the vice-chairman of the Prison Officers' Association, said: 
"If you go to Belmarsh you'd see 20 going to Friday prayers a few years ago. 
Now you'll see 150.
"Put it this way, we're a power station and you don't want us to explode. 
The radical Muslims make the IRA look like kittens.""

Abu Hamza is one person who deserves everything he gets.
He is a parasite as well as a purveyor of terrorism and hate "
